Description

We are looking for a strong Rust developer to join our trading technology team and build high-performance systems for market making and liquidity provision. You will design, implement, and optimize low-latency components that power our automated market-making strategies across crypto, FX, or traditional markets.

What You’ll Do

Design and implement low-latency market-making engines and liquidity provision logic in Rust

Build and optimize order management, risk checks, inventory management, and quoting systems

Develop high-performance connectivity to exchanges (REST, WebSocket, FIX, or proprietary protocols)

Work on real-time data pipelines, market data handlers, and state management

Profile and optimize for latency, throughput, and memory usage

Collaborate with quant researchers and traders to productionize strategies

Improve reliability, observability, and fault tolerance of the trading stack

Participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and continuous improvement of the codebase

Requirements

Strong proficiency in Rust (ownership, async, concurrency, unsafe when justified, performance-critical code)

Experience building low-latency or high-throughput systems (trading, HFT, market making, or similar domains preferred)

Solid understanding of market microstructure, order books, market making, and liquidity provision concepts

Experience with networking (TCP, WebSockets, FIX) and binary protocols

Familiarity with concurrency primitives, lock-free structures, and performance profiling tools

Strong computer science fundamentals (algorithms, data structures, systems programming)

Comfortable working in a fast-paced, production trading environment

Nice to Have

Prior experience in market making, prop trading, or crypto/DeFi liquidity provision

Knowledge of exchange APIs (CEX or DEX)

Experience with time-series data, order book reconstruction, or simulation frameworks

Familiarity with risk management systems or position/inventory controls

Exposure to C++ or other systems languages (helpful for interop or legacy systems)

Experience with monitoring/observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, etc.)

What We Offer

Competitive compensation + performance-based upside

Opportunity to work on production market-making systems with real impact

High-ownership role with direct influence on architecture and performance

Collaborative team of engineers, quants, and traders

Flexible remote/hybrid work
